JUDE BELLINGHAM was spotted in the stands on Boxing Day, watching his brother Jobe play for Sunderland against Hull.

Following Real Madrid’s 1-0 triumph against Alaves on Thursday, the 20-year-old is enjoying the Spanish winter break. Los Blancos will take a two-week break before returning to action on January 3 against Mallorca at home.

And Jude is spending some of the holiday season in England, taking to the stands at the MKM Stadium in Hull.

Jobe, 18, joined Sunderland in the summer, following his brother out of Birmingham.

Jobe’s father, Mark, lives with him in Sunderland, while his mother, Denise, is in Spain with Jude, who also saw Sunderland lose 3-0 to Coventry before Christmas.

The Championship midfielder has had a fantastic start to his career in the North East, scoring four goals and assisting once for the Black Cats.

His recent form has even prompted speculation about a move to Real Madrid, where Jude is tearing it up.

Sunderland began the day in ninth place, three points outside the play-offs under new boss Michael Beale. Jobe started in his normal No10 spot against Hull.

And he was instrumental in their 1-0 victory, which moved them up to sixth place.

Jude, who wore a gilet to the game and appeared to be wearing a Sunderland scarf, has had an impressive start in the Spanish city.

In 21 games for the 14-time European champions, he has 17 goals and five assists.

Jude is currently largely regarded as one of the world’s top players, alongside Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland.

Real Madrid surpassed Girona at the top of the La Liga standings after a late win over Alaves, courtesy of a stoppage-time strike from Lucas Vazquez.

With a flawless group-stage record, they also qualified for the final 16 of the Champions League.
